“Every one says forgiveness is a lovely idea, until they have something to forgive.”
C.S. Lewis
“After a good dinner one can forgive anybody, even one's own relations”
Oscar Wilde
“Confront the dark parts of yourself, and work to banish them with illumination and forgiveness. Your willingness to wrestle with your demons will cause your angels to sing. Use the pain as fuel, as a reminder of your strength.”
August Wilson
“Always forgive your enemies - nothing annoys them so much.”
“Any fool can criticize, condemn, and complain but it takes character and self control to be understanding and forgiving.”
Dale Carnegie
“I can forgive, but I cannot forget, is only another way of saying, I will not forgive. Forgiveness ought to be like a cancelled note - torn in two, and burned up, so that it never can be shown against one.”
Henry Ward Beecher
“One forgives to the degree that one loves.”
François de la Rochefoucauld
